4th of July at the Lake!

So I never have been very good at taking pictures but I did get better once Karly came along! We spent the weekend at the Lake for the 4th with lots of family and had a great time! But of course, I didn't take any pictures of Miss Karly in the lake for the first time. She had a ball and LOVES the water! It was more like taking a bath because it was so warm though. My Mom and Aunt Pat had fun with her in a little kiddie pool just her size. Total photo op but again no pictures! I think I must have been having too much fun relaxing and taking advantage of the great free babysitting!! We had every intentions of going out on the boat with Karly to see the fireworks but you try putting a very tired baby into a life jacket or should I say straight jacket and see how much she likes it! Needless to say, Daddy, Karly, and I stayed in for the night while the rest of the family went out. They were back in less than 15 minutes and didn't have great things to say about the firework display anyway. The weather didn't cooperate with us very well and we were lucky to get in just a few hours of fun in the sun! It was nice to be on a little vacation with lots of help with Karly but boy is it great to be home too!! Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th!
